− | Prestige cataphract armor improves a pawns [[Psychic Sensitivity]] by 5%, and improves the pawn's base [[Psycasts#Neural_Heat_Recover_Rate|neural heat recovery rate]] by 0.033 heat per second, though this will be modified by their psylink level.

This primarily improves a pawns psychic power, but note that it also makes them more susceptible to psycasts themselves, as well as [[Events#Psychic Drone|psychic drone]]s. This increase is inferior to the [[Eltex vest]] that the prestige cataphract armor replaces, but in exchange it is significantly more protective. |
Protection-wise, the prestige cataphract armor is exactly as defensive as regular cataphract armor. Cataphract armor provides the best protection of any armor in the game, especially against blunt, and can block heat damage. Like [[Recon armor]] and [[Marine armor]] it also covers the limbs in addition to the torso making for great overall protections. It provides roughly the same protection as a Marine Armor of one quality level above its own, or of Recon Armor two quality levels above its own. It also allows a pawn to reach the cap of 200% sharp protection at Legendary quality. Compared to a [[flak vest]] and [[duster]], Cataphract armor offers strictly superior protection to all body parts when all items are the same [[quality]], regardless of duster material. However, Cataphract armor is much more expensive, needs a long time to make and also needs the Cataphract Armor research before being available. | Protection-wise, the prestige cataphract armor is exactly as defensive as regular cataphract armor.

The armor provides a significant [[Move Speed]] debuff of <nowiki>-0.80 c\s,</nowiki> double that of [[Marine armor]] and over six times that of a flak vest, making the armor impractical for every day wear by some pawns. The bionic legs may be used to offset this move speed penalty. |
